My book entitled "FOR LOVE OR MONEY?" Available Now! @www.amazon.com (search by Sherrie D. Cotton) ISBN 978-0-692-00548-4.

Patricia was from a middle-class suburban family; her parents struggled to put her through college, yet she became a M.D. She dated insufficient men, lowering her standards, but soon she got tired of dating broke men. She met a handsome gentleman named Michael, a successful established Lawyer, with money. And he lavished her with all kinds of gifts, and he gave her the world! Yolanda, Patricia?s best friend was a jealous, lowdown, woman that despised what Patricia had. So, she crossed the line by coming on to one of them, and trying to destroy their relationship and careers. Did she succeed? Did Yolanda want Michael for herself or did she want Patricia? See how their friendship affected and infected the whole family with lies, greed, promiscuity, lust, sexuality and suicide?even future generations!

Submission Guidelines for "Street Smarts: An Anthology of Urban Survival Strategies"
(Please pass this on...)


We the Editors of "Street Smarts: An Anthology of Urban Survival Strategies" are getting plenty of submissions and we are currently in need of submissions that tells your story of survival via Rent Parties, Urban food recipes, the Urban Banking system (Su Su), Home remedies, prison survival etc...

Below are the actual submission guidelines:

..........................................................................................................................................
There's a New Anthology in the works...
Call for Manuscripts: Street Smarts...

Louis Reyes Rivera and Bruce George, co-editors of the critically acclaimed The Bandana Republic, are now accepting submissions for their latest effort, Street Smarts: An Anthology of Urban Survival Strategies.

Street Smarts is another literary first, this one focusing on the urban working class and the ability to enhance one’s earning power despite often being underemployed. How do lower paid workers make ends meet? How do the unemployed survive once they've used up their unemployment benefits? What happens to them once they disappear from official statistics? What tactics have they developed? Is there another economic system at work that is totally outside of mainstream standards? What does the underclass and the fair-to-middling do to feed the family within a hostile environment? Are the strategies they devise parts of yet another working standard? To what extent is there an underground economy that is not exactly illegal, yet for which there is no yardstick by which to measure its effectiveness?

Given the current economic downturns and consistent losses of jobs, are the strategies and options that have long ago developed among the working poor still viable? What are they? Are they legal, extralegal or illegal? What common threads hold the underclass together? Do they bear their own ethics? How applicable are they?

The answers to these questions serve as the parameters for Street Smarts. Our target audience includes the hundreds of thousands who, like never before, are faced with new challenges – unemployment, loss of homes, debts, etc., with homelessness and public shelters ever increasingly a viable and realistic given.

Here's an opportunity for the entire planet to hear your truth, our truth, about both our desperate and our aspirate states, straight up from the streets. This anthology will offer real life stories of how folk who have come from or find themselves suddenly at the bottom have developed their own ways and means to survive.

The editors of Street Smarts welcome you to submit your own story of survival. It can come in the form of poetry or drama, as biographical and/or fictional accounts of ways in which citizens will make ends meet – how we work a hustle or cook those meals on a shoestring budget or how we use borrowing and lending to keep that household going (even via pyramid schemes or other forms of community banking), or working the numbers racket and/or relying on the balata).

We want to hear from freelance writers and artists, from consultants who no longer work a regular job-of-be, even from street pharmacists and drug dealers. We want to hear from those who still host Rent Parties or organize poetry readings, who rent dance halls for weekend events, or loan shark their way through life. We want to hear from anyone who finds a way to cut the price down, or make use of old home remedies instead of going to the pharmacy, from those who've survived prisons in every way imaginable, and how they adapt to street and prison codes in order to fend for themselves.

We will consider material on any topic, in any form and according to how each contributor interprets factual events and strategies, even when couched with fictional characters. What matters most is that you're helping to illustrate how creative humans really are, no matter what the odds against us. Artwork and photography are welcomed.

As a white man utterly enamored of the big Black woman, I find her the pinnacle of female sparkle, what a gift to have come upon this website. So wonderful that a book club would be devoted solely to the Black BBW. Talk about a rich subject for literature and discussion! Can't wait to dive in and start in on these titles. Thanks so much, Chris Holden
